8x - 3y = 24
y-intercept ⇒ x = 0
subtitute
8 · 0 - 3y = 24
-3y = 24 |divide both sides by (-3)
y = -8
Answer:
Midpoint is ( Average of x’s, Average of y’s )
1 = (x + 7)/2
2 = x + 7, x = - 5
and - 1 = (y + (-4))/2
so - 2 = y - 4 and y = 2
Pt B = (- 5, 2)
Answer:
![\[\frac{1}{24}\]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5C%5B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B24%7D%5C%5D)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the total number of batteries produced daily be represented by x.
7/8 of the batteries are packaged immediately.
So the total number of packaged batteries = ![\[\frac{7x}{8}\]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5C%5B%5Cfrac%7B7x%7D%7B8%7D%5C%5D)
Remaining batteries = ![\[x-\frac{7x}{8}\]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5C%5Bx-%5Cfrac%7B7x%7D%7B8%7D%5C%5D)
= ![\[\frac{x}{8}\]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5C%5B%5Cfrac%7Bx%7D%7B8%7D%5C%5D)
Two third of the remaining batteries are sent to charity.
So the total number of batteries sent to charity= ![\[\frac{2}{3} * \frac{x}{8}\]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5C%5B%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7B3%7D%20%2A%20%5Cfrac%7Bx%7D%7B8%7D%5C%5D)
= ![\[\frac{x}{12}\]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5C%5B%5Cfrac%7Bx%7D%7B12%7D%5C%5D)
Remaining batteries are faulty.
So the total number of faulty batteries = ![\[\frac{x}{8} - \frac{x}{12}\]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5C%5B%5Cfrac%7Bx%7D%7B8%7D%20-%20%5Cfrac%7Bx%7D%7B12%7D%5C%5D)
= ![\[\frac{3x - 2x}{24}\]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5C%5B%5Cfrac%7B3x%20-%202x%7D%7B24%7D%5C%5D)
= ![\[\frac{x}{24}\]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5C%5B%5Cfrac%7Bx%7D%7B24%7D%5C%5D)
So the faction of batteries which are faulty =
= ![\[\frac{x}{24} \div x\]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5C%5B%5Cfrac%7Bx%7D%7B24%7D%20%5Cdiv%20x%5C%5D)
= ![\[\frac{1}{24}\]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5C%5B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B24%7D%5C%5D)

Hmmm so, parallel lines have the same slope, so a line that's parallel to <span>y=1/3x-5, will also have the same slope as that one, what would that be anyway? </span>

, well, low and behold, since that equation is in slope-intercept form already, we can see is just 1/3.
<span>
so, what is the equation of a line whose slope is 1/3 and runs through 3, -7?
